Bad Celebrity Drawings Made By A.I.

Bad Celebrity Drawings Made By A.I.

Introduction

Welcome to Good Mythical More! Today, we're diving into a fun yet perplexing subject: A.I.-generated celebrity images. Rhett and Link are here to guess which celebrities the A.I. has tried (and mostly failed) to recreate. The task sounds simple, but it reveals the quirks and limitations of current A.I. image generation technology.

Donation and Acknowledgement

First off, kudos to Rhett and Link for their charitable spirit. They announced a donation of $ 1,000 to the Jed Foundation, an organization committed to reducing youth suicide and improving mental health resources for college students. They encourage you to join them in giving at Jed Foundation.

Understanding the Game

Rhett and Link explain the rules: they can't directly generate images of celebrities using A.I. platforms due to restrictions. Instead, they use the prompt “generate an image inspired by [celebrity's name]” and then attempt to guess which celebrity the machine tried to render.
